There are a ton of threads... general consensus is this: if you plan on going with an aftermarket intake, A. dont expect much gains, and B. if you can spend the money elsewhere, do so (bhr ignition, exhaust, springs, etc)

I have been searching the same and found that everyone is a fan of the Racing Beat Revi, BUT it is really only most beneficial if you get the air duct to go with it.

If you dont plan on getting the air duct, save your money and just remove the dampers from inside of the stock intake box to get better airflow (there is a DIY on this site)

Remember, you will need to remove the front bumper to install any of the beneficial intakes for the car

no intake is good if you don't have AP MM tune, so, get the AP first cause it is going to discontinue on july 31st, then you have half a year to get your intake, mid pipe and exhaust for the max hp tune by MM. He claim you could get 5-22hp out of the tune.
